## {% linkable_title Concepts %}
|
|
|
|
The Ecobee Thermostat supports the following key concepts.
|
|
|
|
The _target temperature_ is the temperature that the device attempts
|
|
to achieve. The target temperature is either determined by the
|
|
currently active climate or it may be overridden by a hold. When the
|
|
thermostat is not in auto mode, there is a single target
|
|
temperature. When the thermostat is in auto operation mode, there is a
|
|
pair of target temperatures: the lower target temperature determines
|
|
the lowest desired temperature, while the higher target temperature
|
|
determines the highest desired temperature (the thermostat will switch
|
|
between heating and cooling to keep the temperature within these
|
|
limits).
|
|
|
|
A _climate_ is a predefined or user-defined set of states that the
|
|
thermostat aims to achieve. The ecobee thermostat provides three predefined
|
|
climates: Home, Away, and Sleep. The user can define additional climates.
|
|
|
|
A _hold_ is an override of the target temperature defined in the
|
|
currently active climate. The temperature targeted in the hold mode may be
|
|
explicitly set (temperature hold), it may be derived from a reference
|
|
climate (home, away, sleep, etc.), or it may be derived from a vacation
|
|
defined by the thermostat. All holds are temporary. Temperature and
|
|
climate holds expire when the thermostat transitions to the next climate
|
|
defined in its program. A vacation hold starts at the beginning of the
|
|
defined vacation period, and expires when the vacation period ends.
|
|
|
|
When in _away mode_, the target temperature is permanently overridden by
|
|
the target temperature defined for the away climate. The away mode is a
|
|
simple way to emulate a vacation mode.
|
|
|
|
The _operation mode_ of the device is the currently active operational
|
|
modes that the Ecobee thermostat provides: heat, auxHeatOnly, cool,
|
|
auto, and off.
|
|
|
|
|
|
